Cherokee (improv games) - UNT Jam Session

[@carlosperez2717]

i really love how the drummer took the opportunity during the bari solo and just went for it, so much talent here

[@tylerheintzen722]

So many charlie parker quotes lmfao. This serves as a great reminder that music is fun and spontaneous. Keep up the great work.

[@alangiles4616]

Austin, your trumpet playing goes from strength to strength - and your improvising skills as well. The fact that it was recorded during the awful year of 2020 is an extra bonus - a great tonic for everyone concerned including us listeners. Stay well.

[@austinford2339]

Wow thank you for these kind words!! You stay well too my friend.

[@Shoom-wt]

Yeah, thats something like that. I mean Inprovisations are something really individual and not really genre based. Though its most common in jazz, so you can say this jazz.

Each person picks a feel and tempo when it's their turn to solo and the rhythm section has to hear it and follow

Good！！

Drummer blew the form.

[@supmet2]

Why?

[@ethandasaxman]

Trumpet man doesn’t get why slowing down can be a good thing......

[@ethandasaxman]

@@hughpenner5051 traditionally, cherokee is played at blazing tempos. but if the band has trouble keeping up with it, what's the point beyond trying to out-alpha one another? the trumpeter himself counts off and does not solo at his own tempo. when others are soloing, he doesn't seem to really listen. he just wants to get through them. all this being said, i really liked the variety of solos. everyone's gotta learn their limits though and what they can pull off for artistic, not athletic reasons.

[@duncancofell8960]

@@ethandasaxman it’s a jam session, without an audience in particular. There’s nothing wrong with trying fun things with risk of flopping lol. Not that they did, they all played great for sure.

[@averywise659]

Dislike just because the trumpet player has his pinky in loop by the valves. Unacceptable in most situations

[@averywise659]

I went to school and have played with professionals. There are only two accepted situations, quick mute changes and certain marching scenarios.

[@averywise659]

@@hughpenner5051 I'm 22 using an old photo and that information comes from a trumpet player with a PhD. Just because a lot of people use that doesn't make it right, just makes them stupid.
